The Debt, movie (2011)
Ever since her turn as the title role in 2006’s The Queen, she has allowed herself to take roles that women younger than her would kill for. Many times you hear actresses complain that they don’t get the roles they used to because of their age. If …

Fiesta movie
Fiesta is a small musical film from 1941 that features Ann Ayars as Cholita and Jorge ‘George’ Negrete as José. The opening song is inviting and very upbeat; I enjoyed it greatly.
The spirited movie begins with a 3 day fiesta being held with the goal of honoring the return …
Vampires Suck (Movie, 2010)
With the over abundance of vampire movies and television shows out and coming out it only makes sense that someone would come out with a spoof of these entertaining videos, but isn’t a spoof supposed to be funny? Sure, “Vampires Suck” has some funny points, maybe about three of …
Sherlock Holmes’ Terror By Night
When I was younger, I used to watch Sherlock Holmes a lot. I loved these movies, and they were on all the time. Then years passed and I’ve only seen it a few times. Oddly, I don’t seem to enjoy these mysteries as I once did, …
Movie Gomorrah
I had expected the movie —˜Gomorrah’ to be dark and violent, as the plot is about gangs in modern-day Naples, Italy, and it was certainly as I expected. What I hadn’t expected was that, along with the murder and drugs that are prominently featured in this sub-titled film, the …
The Fugitive
This weekend I watched The Fugitive again and was reminded what a great movie it is. I was skeptical when it was being made. I love the TV series, which is television classic, and I was afraid the theatrical movie would detract from it or parody it …
“Fanboys” Motion Picture
I did enjoy this movie which shocked me. I am not a fan of comic books, nerds, star wars etc which is the main target audience for this film but I saw a preview for it and it looked funny. About 20 minutes in I almost turned …

Erin Brockovich
This is a very beautiful movie. Well, it’s based on the life of activist Erin Brockovich, so there’s nothing much we can do or comment about the plot or story line. Erin lived a very inspiring, albeit controversial life and we owe some respect as to how she lives …
The Time Traveler’s Wife movie
Well, I didn’t think I would end up liking the movie The Time Traveler’s Wife when my wife forced me to watch it last night. But, it turned out to be pretty decent.
Basically, you have a man who is a time traveler against his will (he can’t control when …
Mulholland Drive (2001)
Mulholland Drive is an absolute masterpiece from surreal director David Lynch, but it is not for everybody I guess. Some people are going to be irritated at the strangeness of this film, but others like me enjoy that strangeness and it serves to draw us into the mystery. …
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince
The film was absolutely fabulous. I was worried, I won’t lie, that Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy) would not have the acting chops to do this movie given that he’s had so little screen time in the past. I was worried that the “please” on top of the …
The Brass Teapot (movie)
I had never heard of the movie “The Brass Teapot” before I saw a movie poster of it by accident recently. When I looked up on the summary of the movie, I was hesitant to try it too, since I felt like it was going to more than likely …
Superman Doomsday
Let me start off by saying…”One of the best Superman Movies animated or not ever made”. I have always been of the opinion that Superman’s portrayed character is so lame, why is he called “Superman” in the first place. He always seems to get the tar beat out of …
How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying

The Devil Wears Prada
I typically like Anne Hathaway’s movies but the Devil Wears Prada just didn’t do anything for me.
Hathaway plays an up and coming journalism student who takes an internship at a fashion magazine and finds herself going from social outcast to the favorite of her boss (played by Meryl Streep). …
Arachnophobia movie
I was trying to find something to watch last night while sitting up with our youngest daughter and ended up putting on the movie Arachnophobia.
Big mistake. And, not because it is a horrible film; because it kept me up half the night thinking there were creepy crawlies on me.
I …
A.M.C. Theatres
A.M.C. is a theatre in Ontario - but it is not as famous as ‘famous players theatre’ because it is relatively new. If you go on weekdays, it is practically deserted. A lot of people even sneak in because they barely have any security on weekdays so I think …
Black Swan Movie
2010 has not been a great year for movies. When the pickings are slim, you immediately notice the movies that get gleaming reviews for outstanding performances and innovation. Black Swan has been such a movie. It is difficult to avoid seeing the various ads and reviews for this film. …
21 Grams movie
In order to fully understand 21 Grams, you will have to be committed to watching this movie at least twice. After the first viewing, you will want to watch 21 Grams again because the movie is thrilling and very exciting. There is a love story between Paul and Christine, …

Half Nelson
I am reviewing the 2006 movie, Half Nelson starring Ryan Gosling. Half Nelson revolves around a school teacher who is a favorite among his students. His class is always active with humor and fun, and everyone loves him…everyone except him. Ryan Gosling’s character smokes pot and does …
Clawed the Legend of Sasquatch (2005) Movie

For the longest time, I had completely forgotten about this movie. It used to be one of my favorite films of all time as a child, than I rediscovered it again as an adult for one reason. The Pixar movie, Wall-E. Wall-E really reminded me of Johnny 5 from …
Sex and Breakfast
If everyone ever walks up to you on the street and offers you a movie about group sex that stars Macaulay Culkin, be nice, say no thank you and walk away quickly.
The reason I say this is, the movie likely being offered to you is the film Sex and …
Penelope Movie (2006)
I had watched this last night on HBO and I was really surprised there was such a movie as this one, I haven’t really seen this movie when it was being shown in the theatres and I’m glad I had seen it last night. The show features a …
The Danish Girl (2015 Film)
Period dramas are not that interesting to me unless they are released to compete for awards. Take for example “Age of Adaline”, it was very nonsensical and boring because it was solely made for entertainment. It was presented like it was a true story but it was purely science fiction.
Dramas …

The Boy (2016 Horror Movie)

In this movie, murder …
Shrek3 Shrek the Third
I loved the first two Shrek movies, this third one was such a dissappointment to me. I mean I really thought I’d enjoy it. Usually the first movies is good, then the sequel bombs, and everything else follows.. but in this case Shrek 1 & 2 were …
I Robot

Avalon movie
A japanese film that takes place in the future about a mysterious addictive computer game that takes over people’s lives. There are many similarities here to the interesting Battle Royale. For one thing it is focused on teenagers, and secondly it is regarding a popular item as something that …
Movie The Ugly Truth
I had heard a lot of talk about the movie The Ugly Truth. Mainly, Gerard Butler and Katherine Heigl were said to have a lot of on-screen chemistry. Still, it was supposed to be a chick flick, with a bit of an edge, and I would say that the …
The Illusionist
The best thing this movie had going for it was the cast. Top rated actors putting on exceptionally fine performances kept this movie from being confused with its contemporary counterpart. The Prestige. Edward Norton always does well, no matter what role he plays. He is what I call an …
Rocky Balboa
As You all know there is a few films about Rocky (Silvester Stalone), but I think this is a last one. All of those films about Rocky are some kind the same. but every time I watch one of them it always touch my heart so is this film.

A low budget movie turns out sophisticatedly neat. Starring Debra Messing (of Will and Grace) as Katherine, a New Yorker, looking for a for-hire-date that she could bring to London for her half sister’s wedding.
